in that case it's fontforge that merges the two vectors (technically we 
can have one glyph name representing two unicode points) using the 
/C<num> logic that taco mentions; the best solution is to have sane 
glyph names

it also relates to looping over the sparse tables ... sort of arbitrary 
what comes first

but, as taco mentions, \char140 does give a king here; doesn't it in latex?
